Security: RawLens/rawlens

SECURITY.md

Security Policy

RawLens formats developer data inside Chrome, so security and privacy issues are treated seriously.

Supported Versions

Security fixes target:

  • The latest version published to the Chrome Web Store.
  • The current master branch.

Older versions may receive fixes when the risk is high and the patch is practical, but they are not guaranteed to be supported.

Reporting a Vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue with exploit details, sensitive logs, tokens, or private payloads.

Preferred reporting path:

  1. Use GitHub private vulnerability reporting: https://github.com/RawLens/rawlens/security/advisories/new
  2. If private reporting is unavailable, open a public issue that only says you need a private security contact. Do not include the vulnerability details in that issue.

Helpful report details:

  • RawLens version.
  • Chrome version and operating system.
  • Whether the issue affects selection, clipboard, page source, page HTML, raw pages, History, or the website.
  • A minimal reproduction using redacted or synthetic data.
  • Expected impact and any known workaround.

Please avoid sending real production logs, secrets, access tokens, customer data, or private URLs.

Response Goals

These are goals, not guarantees:

  • Initial acknowledgement within 7 days.
  • Triage and severity assessment within 14 days.
  • Coordinated fix and release plan based on severity and complexity.

Scope

In scope:

  • Chrome extension permissions and Manifest V3 behavior.
  • Content script behavior and popup rendering.
  • Formatting and syntax-highlighting pipelines.
  • Local History storage and deduplication.
  • The GitHub Pages website for RawLens.

Out of scope:

  • Vulnerabilities in Chrome itself.
  • Dependency vulnerabilities without a demonstrated impact on RawLens.
  • Reports that require access to private user data.
  • Spam, social engineering, or physical attacks.
  • Denial-of-service reports against GitHub, Chrome Web Store, or other third-party services.

Disclosure

Please give maintainers a reasonable opportunity to investigate and release a fix before public disclosure. Credit will be given when requested and appropriate.
